wounded for my mate

Calum122 · Guru

Haha That's hilarious!

Not being funny but kinda had it coming. Judging from the photos and videos that car park gets absolutely terrorised. I feel sorry for the patrons quite frankly. Wasn't it the other week someones ped caught fire. Yeah kinda not surprised why the police were there.

Still funny though.

What was the end result.

Dt Danny · Guru

yeh police are over there every night lol and yeh it was that car park

Dt Danny · Guru

MDK · DTR Legend

2strokemx · Guru

Ha, av it is all i can say, should be arrested just for riding that thing, what the hell was it a 125 scooter?

yamahayz125 · DTR Senior Member

jet force 125 their funny horrible bikes/scooters

Calum122 · Guru

Don't know the 125 scooter two strokes. I don't have volume when I watched this. I thought it was a running but those runners are quick and will make even the better dt's look silly.

2strokemx · Guru

Its was a pig not a smoker

Calum122 · Guru

Ah say no more. Should have arrested him!

Dt Danny · Guru

it was a runner 125 with a 200 gearbox reg as a 50 haha and he just got a slap on the wrist and a section 59 lol

Victor · Guru

Why do people love wheelie's so much? I just don't get it.

2strokemx · Guru

Ditto vic, i dont get it either

Dt Danny · Guru

i dont know lol maybe a test of skill for the balancing point of the bike with weight vs power and the danger risk of being caught ?

2strokemx · Guru

Or try to look like a ****? Ha yes the balance and control etc but i find that all gets overruled by just looking like a tit

typical so in fact he has no licence for the bike tax-test void and if he came off or hit some one insurance also void ?

this is the kind of reason we all pay so much for insurance

ToySoldier · DTR Legend

Only people who don't like wheelies are the ones who can't do them. Very lucky that lad I lost my licence from doing less of a wheelie lol

Calum122 · Guru

I don't think he can really brag to be fair. All of that and it's still a fourstroke.

My dad has a Runner 200 and it is pathetic! I can't imagine the 125 being any better.

2strokemx · Guru

This is on a bloody scooter i dont like, thats what i mean when people wheelie on peds

I could wheelie all day long just dont see the fun in it

Incorrect. Our insurance is up because the insurance want an increase in profits.

Because the insurance companies want to keep their profits on the ^ side.

really and you evidence of this? because to me and everyone else it seems insurance companies are paying out more and more due to Idiots fraudulent claims etc... it makes sense that you cannot keep paying out if the money you get in is not enough!

Luke · Guru

Meh, insurance company's are businesses. Not a single business is in it for the customers, more in it for the £.

dread123 · Moderator

why should they keep prices low if they are paying out more? that is the whole point to make money yes- but if we had no fraud etc then costs would be much lower!

and to be honest the way alot of kids drive today is shocking and the sooner they restrict licences the better i think(cars/bikes whatever)...but thats something else to discuss :p

Calum122 · Guru

I don't think restricting the license will help.

I think it's the training or lack of we have in the UK. Where was it, Sweden, or something like that they put people through skid plates as part of their driving test to ensure they know how to control the car under those conditions. That is what they need, more thorough testing in order to get people to pass. A lot of youths drive excessively, okay there is no stopping that. But if they were better prepared, better trained more accidents could be avoided. I'm making a bold statement here but I get the impression those who drive their vehicles to the limit (when they were younger) are better drivers than those who have never taken a car beyond 3K. Only because whilst what they are doing is wrong, dangerous and stupid they have ultimately increased their driving experience to cover a widely rariety of driving.

I believe that driving schools should have access to high speed rings, skid planes and other dangerous obstacles so people can be taught properly on how to handle the situation when it occurs. Things like induced tank slaps, blow out tyres, faulty throttle, faulty clutch etc could easily be simulated on special cars, or software. Just to give the experience and 'Know How' for if the worst ever happens. I play a lot of on my 'Racing Simulator', Wheel, pedals and six speed box, whilst it's still only a game I would like to think it makes me a better driver. I done my test years ago but have never owned a car. But I can still jump in the work van when I need to and drive that almost fine. So I have never driven on a daily basis in my life. But once a month if I'm asked to take the van I can drive that okay. I'd like to believe that's maybe because I play a lot of Gran Turismo. Silly I know but It helps and I believe todays software could provide cheap simulations as part of driving test.

The driving license wants an overhaul. The driving age should be lowered to allow training to begin at a more adept level. I'd like to say that because of my riding I was better equiped to drive. By lowering the age I just mean so they should have to do at least 2 years of training before taking the test. Something like that. There are a lot of people, including myself, that wouldn't know how to handle a blow out at the national speed limit.

restrictions all way for me-restrict passengers and time people should be on road-with exceptions of course.

when you get to something like this then you realise why! -try to imagine the devastation onscene -2 killed ,2 still trapped in car! not nice

and i think the gran turismo thing just seems to work the other way-people think they are invincible and believe a "real" car will handle the same...well it doesnt!

Although i agree should be min 2yrs before gaining licence and more traiining from younger age.

dread123 · Moderator

sorry for going off topic...perhaps new thread about thoughts of this?

Calum122 · Guru

Yes and no. I know what you mean. If I go straight from GT to driving I can be like that. That's for sure. That stuff should be as bad as drink driving. But I would like to think it's better than nothing.

slob · Guru

I've set my best times round the nurburgring on forza after a few cans lol.

But totally agree on the simulated blow outs ect that would be good.

Dt Danny · Guru

ive had a mini tank slapper on the dt and that was some scary **** and yeh cal i agree
